      Is it for sale? Is there a monetary value?

      What could you do with a bike like that? Museum is the only thing I can think of. Right next to the still-in-crate CBX.

            Not that I have ever been part of that discussion, but I see one picture of a bike from the left-front quarter.
            The back-lighting is kinda sketchy, might be inducing a bit of a gold-ish tint.

            Are you guys seeing other pictures that I can't? If so, it's probably because I am not part of FarceBook.

                It would be a tough call to decide to ride that, especially given the reconditioning it would need to be put on the road.
